Can anyone recommend some good brands of 6800 GT? Are there some brands to
stay away from? I'm not planning to OC the card, but factory OC'd is
acceptable to me (as long as the factory cooling is adequate and there's
some decent warranty on that). Right now, I'm considering the XFX GeForce
6800 GT. Anyone know any good or bad things about those cards or the
company?
I'm going to stick it in a system with a 3.06Ghz (533MHz FSB) proc, 1GB of
RAM. Right now, I have a Radeon 9700 Pro. From the benchmarks I've seen, it
looks like I'll get at least 2 times the performance in most games. Does
that seem right? Also, the motherboard I have the (Gigabyte 8INXP) has some
history of problems with AGP 8x. The performance impact should be negligible
when running the 6800 GT at AGP 4x, right?
